Chapter 15: After Subduing

“Haha, it’s alright. Of course, we’re not in a hurry. It’s said that the personality of the little elf is related to the species. Moreover, it was destined from the moment it was born that this snow elf looks like a gentle type.” Although he said that, Tardell couldn’t take his eyes off the magical snow elf and kept staring at it.

Tardell wasn’t the only one who did this, especially Tucker. His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.

Tucker held out his hand as if he had another thought. His large palm reached forward, but Rylei blocked it with a slap. “Nina refuses to have contact with anyone else,” he said helplessly. “At least wait until you and Nina get to know each other better. She wants to be alone for a while now.”

Without taking his eyes off it, Tucker said, “You can talk to it? Like a contract with a magical beast?”

“Maybe it’s similar, but I’m not sure. Anyway, I suddenly have the ability to communicate with Nina’s mind.” Rielly gently stroked Nina’s back. It was cold, smooth, and elastic.

Reiter interrupted. “Alright, it’s getting late. Since the matter is over, it’s not right to stand here. Let’s go back to the castle first. We’ll talk about Nina later.

“There’s one thing you need to remember. Don’t mention a word about what happened just now. Do you understand?”

Tardell and Kurts’ expressions turned solemn. They agreed on the spot, but in fact, they had no intention of leaking the information.

Elves could not be snatched or transferred by force. Even if they killed someone, the elves would dissipate. Even if they knew, no one was willing to offend them. Unless it was an enemy or someone who couldn’t bear to see others doing well.

The group quietly returned to the castle field. At the door, Reiter saw Lawrence, who had broken through to become an Apprentice Knight a while ago.

Lawrence and another Apprentice Knight, Pritz, stood on either side of the door. Both of them were holding a longsword in one hand and a shield in the other.

Seeing the lord return, the two of them greeted him respectfully.

“Welcome, my lord. Good evening.”

As they greeted each other, they also saw two unfamiliar figures—Tardell and Kurts.

Lawrence had just broken through to become an Apprentice Knight not long ago, but facing two unfamiliar people, he easily felt the same pressure as the two young masters. He was secretly shocked. Were these two Grade 1 Knights?

“I currently have seven Apprentice Knights in my territory. I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you to take the time to guide them in the future.” Reiter seemed to have thought of something and said to Tardell and Kurts.

Kurts smiled faintly and said, “It’s a small matter. It’s only right for me to serve you, my lord.”

Tardell looked at the two of them and his gaze lingered on Lawrence for a while. A strange look appeared in his eyes as he said, “This little knight seems to have just broken through not long ago. His combat aura fluctuation is chaotic and obvious. It means that his control is not strong enough. However, he looks very young. He became a knight a few years earlier than me. His future achievements will not be too low.”

Hearing this, Lawrence was a little flattered. Beside him, Pritz sighed secretly and could only express his envy for his companion.

“Oh? It’s Lawrence.” Reiter looked at Lawrence in surprise. He walked forward and patted his shoulder, encouraging him. “Very good. You heard it too. Your talent seems to be not bad. You should cherish it. In the following days, work hard to learn from the two teachers.

“If there’s a chance in the future, I don’t mind taking out a few more bottles of Combat Aura Potion to help you walk higher. For you, breaking through to the Grade 1 Knight in the future, or even higher, is not a problem.”

In Lawrence’s opinion, such a promise was already quite precious. He said excitedly, “Thank you, my lord! I will definitely train hard and become the sharpest sword in your hand.”

“Haha, forget about the sharp sword. The shield is not bad.” Reiter laughed and joked.

This scene was witnessed by Tardell and Kurts. Anticipation subconsciously surfaced in their eyes. They had a harmonious superior-subordinate relationship and did not put on airs. This made the two of them look forward to their future lives and less worried.

Inside the castle, Svieta stood in the passage on the first floor, looking out of the window. Seeing that his master and the others had returned, he went out to welcome them.

Under the dim yellow light, on the stone path, Reiter said with a smile, “As you can see, there are two newcomers. From now on, there will be two more permanent residents in the castle. The rest will be arranged by you.”

Then, Reiter said to Tardell, “This is my butler, Svieta.”

“Hello, Mr. Svieta. You look really good.” Tardell smiled politely and gave him enough respect. Although this middle-aged man was just an ordinary person, as the lord’s butler, he was also an ordinary person with an extraordinary status.

“Hello, strong knights. The Deep Rock Castle welcomes you both. Please come this way.” Svieta made an inviting gesture and led them toward the stone path’s split path.

In the Deep Rock Castle, the main castle was home to the family and some of the servants who worked in the castle.

As for the servants working outside the castle, as well as the guards and other people who had mastered supernatural powers, they were usually arranged to stay in the secondary castle beside it.

Of course, there was also a passage between the secondary castle and the main castle. However, except for patrols and missions, or special circumstances, the knights were usually not allowed to move freely in the main castle.

The butler left with the two knights, and Reiter led the way to the main castle.

Tonight’s experience was rather rich and exciting. When everything was done and they had just entered the main keep, Tucker yawned and said he was going to his room for a hot shower before going to bed.

Reiter called Rylei to the hall on the fifth floor. The fifth floor was his exclusive floor, so he had set up a separate hall. Although it was not as spacious as the first floor, it was still uniquely warm.

“Father, have a glass of water.” Rylei sensibly brought a glass of water.

Reiter took it with a smile and watched as Rylei untied the package he’d been carrying.

As soon as the package was untied, the exquisite snow elf was immediately revealed. She looked around curiously. Her big round eyes flickered with an ice crystal-like light. Although she had a slit-like mouth, it was obvious that she was unable to speak.

Seeing Reiter, the snow elf was still a little afraid of strangers. It was much better than when she was outside the Young Eagle Town. She could even jump on top of Rylei’s head and stand up straight to look at Reiter.

The snow elf tilted her head and looked at Reiter. She also sensed magic elements from Reiter, so she took a few more glances.

The aura of the earth element was not her type. Then, she looked elsewhere and saw that everything was a new environment for it.

“This is my father. Don’t be afraid, Nina.” Rylei smiled and conveyed the message to the snow elf.

The snow elf looked at Reiter again, not fully understanding. Reiter smiled and waved, exuding a sense of closeness. She slowly floated over.

And perfectly passed by Reiter.

Then, she opened her mouth, and a stream of ice water condensed and extinguished the fire in the fireplace.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

The sound of flames extinguishing could be heard, making the two of them dumbfounded.

Nina, the culprit, jumped onto Rylei’s head again. Her blank eyes revealed that she had no idea what she had just done.
